Kevin Paradis – Mithridatic – Dead Mountain of Life – Exclusive Drum Play-through

This track from drummer Kevin Paradis comes three years after an impressive debut full-length, ‘Miserable Miracle,’ and soon followed by a full European tour with Nile and Melechesh and a year after audio and video digital live album “He Who Lies underneath,“ Mithridatic return with a grim, sick and twisted new album, again mixed and mastered by Francis Caste at Sainte Marthe studio (Sinsaneum, Arkhon Infaustus, Dehuman).

Based on books by Roger Gilbert-Lecomte, Louis-Ferdinand Celine and Charles Bukowski, “Tetanos Mystique” is a nauseating beast of infectious Blackened Death Metal that twists rusted knives deep into your soiled wounds, with a rictus sardonic and a fetish for madness, fever and disease, the absence of morals and the void you’re definitely not prepared for!

The album will be available as a 500 copy limited-edition DigiPak CD first print and Digital along with new merch.

Kevin beat the official single strokes world record with 1037 strokes played on his Trick Drums Pro1-V Bigfoot pedal and he has also beat the official record for 5 minutes, with 4797 strokes played. While working on speed and stamina, Kevin has also tried to stay in touch with what he has learned with the Dante Agostini method. The drum covers on his Youtube channel range from Nile to Porcupine Tree, including Between the Buried and Me, Ulcerate and Animals As Leaders.

Having played with bands like Melechesh, Shining, and Svart Crown, he is currently playing for Benighted, Mithridatic, and some other projects. Kevin is also a studio session drummer.

Kevin proudly endorses Trick Drums USA pedals and Triggers, Poum Tchak Drum Wear, and Serial Drummer Drum Wear.
